Most Helpful Guy

If we're just talking about hookups, I've ticked most off my list. White (most were American, of English, Irish, Italian, Polish, Russian descents, and just random mutts, haha), Latina (Puerto Rican, Dominican, Cuban, Venezuelan), black (African-American, Creole, Haitian, Jamaican), Asian (Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino). Never dated an Indian or Middle-Eastern girl. Just didn't happen to meet a middle eastern girl in my travels, and the Indian girls at my college were very tied into their own culture and weren't interested in non-Indian men, so the option never presented itself.

What Girls Said 25

I'm a white girl who has dated a white guy, a Fijian guy, and now an Asian guy.

Dating outside my race/culture was different but in a mostly positive way. I actually find dating white guys a bit boring from my experience. That might be because I'm first-gen Polish so culture is still quite important to me, but I love being able to be a part of the dynamics of a different culture/religion, as well as the slightly different mannerisms&traditions.

The only negatives would be that I definitely notice a lot of looks when we go out in public and kiss/hold hands or something. I've gotten used to that by now but occasionally it will still bother me, as if people are mad that my boyfriend is not dating within his race and vice-versa. Likewise for meeting his family, but thankfully my current boyfriend's ex-girlfriend was also white so this time around was much easier in that respect. :) Not so much with my mom, who made quite a big deal of the cultural/religious conflict at the beginning but I stuck with it, didn't back down and she's kind of accepted it by now. :)

Im black and the guys I've dated tend to be white (One was part Spanish or something) sense I moved to away for college

I was fine but I got a little tired of it. I like down to earth socialy conscious guys (this is just my preference) . I think the only problemsI had was I felt like the guys well could not relax much outside of there culture, labled some things before thinking about it or trying to understand, and were well just a little awkward with minority things (not surprising because of America's past) . They just seemed to really erm struggle with acceptign things not from there culture... and it put me off... a lot.

But these were only 3 guys and its not all guys. But not gonna lie I personally expect white guys (White american) to have a certain manor because of there culture and values that is not for me. I don't think it meshes well with my personality... one of them said they had racists grand parents which is pretty uncomfortable. I mean who would be comfortable with there bfs/ gfs grandm awishing they were working in a field somewhere... uh no one.

Now, aside from those things it was comfortable for me but I am now more so wanting to date in my ethnicity or Asian culture rather than not caring about it as I did originally because I am fond of certain cultural values and mentalities that some cultures are not used to or don't try to understand them and I feel these cultures possess.

But I also do appreciate what multiple communities bring to the world, so just go for it i guess.

If by dated you mean... took enough of an interest to go on at least a date with I've kind of been all over the place: Mostly white guys, a few black guys, one Korean guy, two Mexican guys. I've only had one serious past relationship, he was white. Current bf is white. High school bf was Mexican.

I have dated one white guy, one black guy, one Asian guy, and my current boyfriend is mixed black and white. Im Asian myself, and honestly do not like dating another Asian. Interracial dating has never been a problem for me, maybe more of a problem for my parents lol.

Race doesn't matter to me. I'm still young as hell so the only guy I've ever dated was Asian. I haven't been caring enough to pursure anything with someone else at the moment so that's all I have under my belt. If a guy comes along and he treats me nice and he was blue or something, I wouldn't care at all. I'd be more focused on and appreciative of other things besides his race.

I've mostly dated Caucasians and one A-A/Asian. This is due to my environment. I am not around many guys that are my race, so I don't have much of a selection. I've been pretty comfortable with dating outside of my race. I was never taught to dislike someone because of their color. The problems I've faced are people saying that I'd have milk dud babies with my first bf. It was the first time someone had ever really brought up race to me like that and it hurt me deeply but I got over it.

Im half japanese, part hispanic, native American and european mix. I've dated mexicans, filipino but most koreans, japanese and chinese. I was most comfortable with the Asian men I've dated. Im comfortable dating outside my race.

The only issues I had mostly came about because of their religion. Im not religious at all. or with korean men from Korea there were a couple cultural differences. For example one guy I dated was so fixated on how his face looked. If he had dark circles under his eyes he would be kind of down the rest of the day.

Other than that... I didn't have any issues with interracial dating. It all came down to t not fully clicking, personality wise, with the guy.

I'm dating a Caucasian guy right now ! & I'm half Hispanic and half Asian ⌒.⌒ does that still count? Haha I date out side my race (mostly my Hispanic race) because the Hispanics I've dated in the past were jerks, had no class, they were controlling and they wouldn't treat me right. However, just to clarify I am NOT racist. I'd just prefer to date outside the Hispanic race.

I've dated many men outside of my "race" (which is Spanish and English). My current boyfriend is Caucasian/Lebanese. It's been a different experience every time, and I mostly notice the difference within family relations. I'm extremely close to my family and not everyone who I've dated with different backgrounds has put family first. I feel like it's definitely a rewarding experience, because it allows you to somewhat see the world through a different set of eyes.

I'm white and had only dated white guys up until my last bf, who was black. Being with him and seeing his home, friends, family, etc. from an inside perspective was really educational. I always thought of myself as openminded, but there were several times when I found myself a little surprised at something that didn't fit with a stereotype that I had accepted without really thinking about it.

Yeah lol those are the races I have dated.. Isn't that what the question is asking for? Lmfao @rUinSAYAN no not zooming through them, they just weren't what I expected them to be down the road.. Yeah I'm Asian lol Cambodian lmfao and teak kiwi like Maori @rUinSAYAN

My ex boyfriend was Asian and white. His mother fillipino and his father was german. I'm African American by the way and I didn't really care about his race. We had no problems with each other. But I did get a couple comments saying that it won't work out, you shouldn't mix and that he would break up with me and go out with an Asian girl ( he looked more Asian than white).

And that's all :p I have no problem with interracial dating, I think it's beautiful. My dad (who is black) is against me dating outside of my race & my mother (who is Italian, native American, and spanish) thinks it's great. Since I've moved to Lousiana though, interracial dating is a lot harder and a lot rarer than I've experienced/seen in Minnesota. soooo much open racism still here, it's sad.

I've also had many other-than-black boys express an attraction to me, but not want to date or anything because I'm half black. And in Lousiana most just count me as black, which I'm fine with. Black is beautiful :) but still.. kinda sucks at times :p

White. For reasons unknown, I only get approached by white men though I've only chosen to date two people in my entire life so...I would be open to date non-white people of course, but right now it's kind of impossible because I am in a relationship.

I date black guys. I've tried white twice before, one just wasn't for me and the other ended up throwing some racist insult during a heated argument. That racist comment one to, lots of white guys do it, quite a few of my friends have had it to. That's why I like arguments sometimes though, because the true person comes out lol. But yea anyway, no offence, but I think I've just been put off white guys for life now. It isn't just because of those two guys, and I know some people say I shouldn't say that because I'm half white myself, but it's just not for me I think.

One white girl I know, most of her past dates have been black, and some white guys make comments to her about it, so she's kinda funny with white guys to, but right now she's in her first real relationship with a white guy. She just used to be more attracted to black guys, because the ones she was meeting were hotter than the white guys she was meeting at the time, but people obviously labeled her how they do with all white girls like her.

lol yea you look good. And yea I know racism will always exist, and that's partly why I've been put off inter racial dating lol, just too much drama, and as I've seen, some racists just do it for the thrill of something different or like a fetish thing.

Actually, I forgot, I have been on a few dates with Pakistanis before to. I know you guys don't really get along lol, but it's still the same race (Asian) and you asked about races.And I went on a couple dates with an Arab guy before to. Just the Asian and Arab guys were nothing significant, just one or two dates.

Yeah... cultural problems. Actually compared to Pakistanis.. indians tend to be more liberal and more open minded. But i do agree that we are one of those ethnicity who are difficult to assimilate with ( in relarelationship sense). Thankfully that's not the problem with 2nd generation ones.Well there is no question of dating outside my race cause India is not a multiracial country LOL( India does have various races like Dravidians , caucasians and mongoloids) but they have already interbred with each other 1000 of years ago hehe. Hence India is already a genetically diversed country of mixed people.But yeah.. If i were to be living in west then i may have dated outside my comfort in a condition that she has not fallen for any stereotype against southasian. :) :)

What Guys Said 11

I've dated all except black. my favs are asian, then white, then hispanic. but its all about whos the least craziest. id marry the asian, have fun with the white and date the hispanic. its all based on my stereo-type mega pre concieved notion of how loyal they are in committed relationships lmao. all fun and jokes.

Also, there are girls of certain ethnicity's/races that I would very much be interested in dating, but they don't date Black guys. If there's a problem I experience in interracial dating it's exclusion.

See this is something that gets in my head. I'm open to dating from any creeds, colours or religions but weirdly, all the girls I've dated have been white brunettes. They seem to be the only ones who are attracted to me.there's an Asian girl at work I keep looking at, and a few black girls I've met in mylife have turned my head too but I've never had the courage to ask any of them out. I don't know why
